    <h1>
        XBRLAPI in the field
    </h1>

    <p>
        If you are using the XBRLAPI and having success (or difficulties) please provide
        <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/xbrlapi/">a review
            on the Sourceforge website</a>. These will assist with development and documentation activities
        on the project and will provide new users with better, independent, information on whether
        the XBRLAPI is likely to meet their needs. A comment to support the review feedback will be
        particularly helpful.
    </p>

    <p>
        Despite its niche market, the XBRLAPI is increasingly being studied and used in the field.
        As of November 2010, almost 1,000 copies of the latest version of the core library had been
        downloaded from Sourceforge.
        Over the life of the XBRLAPI project, well over 25,000 downloads have been logged by Sourceforge.
        In spite of this usage, very little information about usage filters through to the XBRLAPI project.
        This page is an attempt to rectify this.
    </p>

    <p>
        In the event that you are using the XBRLAPI for academic or commercial purposes, it would be helpful
        if you email <a href="mailto:geoff@galexy.net">Geoff Shuetrim</a> with information about your affiliation,
        whether the API has met your requirements, and any details about how the API is being used, that are possible to
        share.
        Information provided in this way will be shared on this page.
    </p>

    <h1>
        XBRLAPI use cases
    </h1>

    <ul>
        <li>2010: <a href="http://www.galexy.net/">Galexy</a> uses the XBRLAPI to perform systematic assessments of
            taxonomy quality.
            These checks augment the usual validation checks performed by most commercial XBRL software, allowing
            heuristic assessment of the consistency
            with which XBRL features like periodType and balance classifications have been used. The XBRLAPI also drives
            the
            <a href="http://xbrlapi.org/">XBRL data review web site</a> that is used by Galexy to drill down on specific
            problems in XBRL taxonomies
            to determine the nature of problems, where necessary, at the bare metal, XML level.
